Mark Cooper has made four changes to his starting line-up for this afternoon’s Emirates FA Cup Third Round tie against Barnsley at Oakwell (3pm kick-off).

The Bluebirds boss has handed a debut to new loan signing Anthony Glennon after he joined the Club on loan from Burnley on Friday.

However, fellow new recruit Will Harris must wait to make his debut following loan move from Sunderland after the striker tested positive for COVID-19.

Dimitri Sea is handed his first start since overcoming hamstring trouble, while James Jones and Jordan Stevens are both restored to Cooper's starting eleven.

Shit me, we sign a desperately needed forward and he’s out with covid

At least Will won't miss the league game

Surely that sums up this season!

Zanzala not even being on the bench surely means he'll be moving on (unless he's another with covid?)

7 defenders in Barnsley's starting 11.

Twisted his ankle in training hence he missed Bradford game. Just maybe he hasn’t recovered?

Yeh, I rather he gets it out the way now. Would have been far worse if we got him in on a run then hit with it. Hopefully he won’t miss a league game now.

Adam has just said on BBC RC that the club said he was available for selection, i.e. recovered from any injury. The rest, now is supposition.

Managed to find a stream to watch from isolation.

Barrow fans appear very vocal already! Cmon the bluebirds!

[MisterPleasant]

This radio coverage is a real mess. I'm listening to Adam on BBC Sounds then all of a sudden it cuts out to the EFL Final Score type programme that runs through league matches. Very frustrating.

'Twisted his ankle in training' - when Dryden said that, you could tell it was made up.
